To get to be a Joe they must have reach some sort of mythical status and got noticed. (I still feel they get recruited)
Dart probably got a good word from Spirit.
Outback is a legendary Trainer as is Recondo
Pathfinder is as well
Sneak Peek was a Legend in the Airborne Rangers
StarDuster he almost doesn't count but I'm sure everyone talked about him.
Altitude probably said "Hey I want on this team period!"
Recoil and Ambush I'm not sure or SideTrack V1 either.
Outback and Recondo are the most likely candidate for Special Forces, and Recondo in particular. I feel pretty strongly about this... so much so that I had Marine Deadpool put them on my Custom ODA Team.
Recondo's position as an instructor at the Jungle Warfare School in Panama is one fact... that school was run by Special Forces, primarily. His work with the indigenous people of Sierra Gordo is another... winning hearts and minds... that's the work and method of Special Forces. If Recondo's not a Green Beret, I'll turn in my dog tags.
Outback's role as a survivalist would only work in Special Forces. That's the kind of thing they teach at the Special Forces School, and if he works as and independent operative, that's the job and method of Special Forces. He doesn't seem like a Team Player, and the Rangers (the only other real alternative for Outback) are big on Team/Unit. Just my opinion.
